-: Hi.
In this video I'm gonna show you
how to build a Hello World program with JSF.
Alright, so before we start coding,
let's just perform a development environment check point.
At this point in the video series,
you should have installed Apache Tomcat,
Eclipse, the Jave EE version,
and you also should have connected Eclipse to Tomcat.
Now, if you haven't done this yet,
please go back to the previous videos
and follow those steps.
You'll need to have all of this in place
before you can actually build a Hello World program.
We're gonna create a very simple
Hello World program with JSF.
What we're gonna do is start with an xhtml form
that's gonna prompt the user for their name.
They'll type in their name, they'll hit submit.
Then we'll have a second page called myresponse.xhtml
and it's simply gonna say Hello,
whatever the user's name is.
So, again, very simple application.
It's gonna make use of two files:
an input form and a simple response page,
and that's it.
Alright, so I'm excited about this.
Let's go ahead and get started.
